Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
Readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria: >90% after 28 days (OECD 301 D)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- readily biodegradable
Additional information
Two reliable biodegradability studies are available for C12-14AS Na (CAS 85586-07-8). A key GLP study was peformed according to OECD guideline 301 D (Werner 1996). Acticvated, non adapted domestic sludge was used as inoculum. The biodegradation after 28 days reached >90% (based on O2 consumption).
The supporting study (Diefenbach 1995) was performed according to EU method C.4 -A. The inoculum consisted of activated, non adapted sludge. The biodegradation measured as DOC removal reached 98% after 28 days.
Finally, a study by Costanini (2005) is available. The non-GLP test was preformed according to ISO 14593:1999 guideline. Inoculum was composed of a mixurte of domestic and industrial sludge. The biodegradation reached 97% after 28 days (inorganic carbon measurement).
It can be concluded that C12-14AS Na (CAS 85586-07-8) is readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
